Students in Mrs. Dougherty and Mr. Grapperhaus' classes they were tasked with choosing an ecosystem and creating a diorama to show the plants and animals in that ecosystem. They chose a forest, the dessert, freshwater, tundra, rainforest, ocean, and the smoky mountains. They will present them tomorrow to explain their choices of how to showcase their ecosystem to get the point across. They did an amazing job!
